1 Installing from Cydia

Kodi v16 has not been posted to the Team Kodi Cydia repo yet due to server issues. However, you can manually install by by clicking here on your iOS device and opening the resulting file in iFile: download deb, using the instructions from here.

Note: To go back to a stable version of Kodi you might need to first uninstall Kodi and then use the normal install instructions, or manually download the stable release deb file and install using the dev build instructions.

3 Installing using Xcode and iOS App Signer

This is considered and advanced and slightly-expirimental method. It is not for the faint of heart.

This method also requires that Kodi be re-installed every 7 days if you are using a free iOS dev account.

Betas and release candidates are builds that are being tested to see if they have any bugs left before becoming a stable release. Most major bugs should be fixed in these builds.

4.3 Converting deb into ipa

Before beginning the installation, you have to convert .deb file of Kodi into .ipa. That is because Cydia Impactor only accepts .ipa files and not .deb files. If you already know how to convert .deb into .ipa, you skip to the installation below.

Step 3: Now you should have data folder and data.tar file in the folder.

Step 4: Go inside the data folder and open Applications folder. Here you will find a folder named Kodi.app.

Step 5: Here create a new folder and name it “Payload” without quotes. Now you should have 2 folders. Payload and Kodi.app folder. Make sure that the P is capital in Payload.

Step 6: Now simply drag the Kodi.app folder and drop it on top of the Payload folder. In other words, copy kodi.app and paste it inside Payload folder.

Step 7: Next you have to Right-click the Payload folder and Click 7-zip > Add to archive option.

Step 8: A new window will pop up. Here you have to make sure that the Archive format is set to zip and name the archive ending with .ipa . Something like Kodi.ipa. After that click OK. Now you should have your kodi.ipa file ready for installation.
